Very neatly put. I think you've summed up the whole situation in a sentence!

Once again you point out that you have serious reading comprehension problems.
I never stated that I open 100 trades at a time, so there is no way I could reversed myself from that statement. There was no course change, you simply cannot read well. Focus on the word "maybe" and you will realize I never made such a claim, but was using a hypothetical example to prove a point.

To prove you are lying again, I dare you to directly quote me where I said this. You cannot.
Yes, let the record show who is lying here, because it is clearly you.

Yes, the bluff has been called. Too obvious.

Yes there is a lot of software out there and traders who make 100's and even 1000's of trades per day. The fact that these guys are not even aware of this, and mock such objective facts, further adds to the evidence of their market ignorance.

Never called myself a hot shot, those are your words.
Trading is not about returns? Wow, thanks for enlightening us all on that point
I'll let your absurdly ridiculous statements stand on their own

with your mindset i'd stick to buy n hold if u want return on investment.

Sadly, it may perhaps be nearly time for the moderators to step in here and declare the thread closed. Such a shame that we can't have a chat about much in these forums without the "doom and gloom merchants" stepping in and hijacking it, insulting people in the process. It's not about Being Right on every little point. It's just about keeping it simple and having a nice, solid, steady, reliable way to make an increasingly good living!
